The Cataby Power Station is an upcoming 400 MW fast-start, open-cycle gas turbine facility set to connect with the South West Interconnected System (SWIS). Located approximately 200 kilometers north of Perth on a 20-hectare plot of cleared agricultural land, the project involves constructing infrastructure, including an access road, on up to 10 hectares of the site.

Cataby Power Station

Pending approval under Part IV of the Environmental Protection Act 1986, the development is designed to comply with strict environmental standards. The project aims to efficiently manage flood risks and stormwater, safeguarding local water bodies and ecosystems in accordance with EPA guidelines.
